​CHEETAH CONSERVATION BOTSWANA

Cheetah Conservation Botswana (CCB) aims to preserve the nation’s cheetah population through scientific research, community outreach and conservation education, working with rural communities to promote coexistence with Botswana’s rich diversity of carnivore species.Botswana hosts the world’s second largest population of cheetahs, behind Namibia, with an estimated population of approximately 2000 individuals. This accounts for approximately 20% of the world’s remaining cheetahs. Due to the location of Botswana in the centre of southern Africa, this population is also crucial to facilitate connectivity between the remaining populations. Because of their wide-ranging natures, animals like the cheetah and the African wild dog need large areas to survive. As a result, protected areas cannot be relied upon to solely maintain populations of these species.CCB exists due to the efforts and donations of a worldwide network of supporters which make it possible for us to continue to help protect this magnificent animal.
